Natural healing concept

Five basic pillars

  • Appropriate vegan diet
  • Regular exercise
  • Healthy breathing
  • Resilience to activate the immune system
  • Mental and Mental Health

Schatalova developed a concept of natural healing, which she substantiated through experiments. She wrote books about it, three books were published in German (the name is translated as Schatalova ). She spoke out with conviction against the assumption that the human organism needs 1200 to 1700 kcal daily. She assumed an energy requirement of around 250 to 400 kcal for a natural diet with undenatured foods and a vegan diet. From 1983 to 1990 she made a series of experiments to determine nutritional needs under stress. In 1983 a 500 km super marathon took place over a period of seven days with an intake of 800 to 1200 kcal per day. The participants were provided with juices, honey, vegetables, lettuce and herbs, flatbreads made from rye flour, boiled beans and nuts. In 1983 a four-day hike from Akademgorodok to Barnaul followed and in 1984 a super marathon of 450 km in five days. A 23-day mountain hike from Nalchik to Pizunda with a daily food ration of 50 g buckwheat and 100 g dried fruits and four hikes through the Central Asian desert with a food intake of no more than 600 kcal per day at around 50 kilometers per day on loose sand in the continental desert climate followed. The participants did not lose any weight - the experiment proved their claims.

criticism

Shatalova's nutritional hypothesis ignores the denaturation of all proteins at the pH of gastric acid in the course of the digestive process . Their form of calorie restriction only works for a short time without causing deficiency diseases .

Quote

Tell me, please, can a society be called sane if each of its new accomplishments on the path to "progress" leads to a deterioration in the health of people themselves and of nature as a whole, of which people have always been and will be? Reason and illness are not only psychologically, but also purely physiologically incompatible, because every illness has a negative effect on the brain. That is why one can only speak of the beginning of an era of reason when, at the same time as scientific and technical progress, the process of liberating mankind from diseases is just as dynamically accompanied by the cleansing of pollution and poisoning from their living environment.

When will these vaunted times finally come? To this day, not a single prophet can answer this question. But how can one predict the development of a community that includes almost six billion people when the majority of them are guided by personal, family, group, ideological, religious, national and even criminal selfish interests; when the living body of the earth is cut up by the boundaries of numerous states, each of which has its own relationship with the part of the biosphere belonging to it - each based on its own extremely imperfect laws. And even these are usually sooner or later sacrificed to "a higher principle", namely when the interests of the country's economic development require it. But you can neither divide nor deceive nature. And until we learn to respect them, protect their interests, and submit to their laws, all talk about an era of reason is premature for me to say the least. (Philosophy of health)
